Sorta...Wine's a bit different. We didn't have a stable release for 15
years til this past June.
Development releases were the normal releases, so sorta betas. They
get the new features, etc. Stable versions are essentially frozen. And
with the speed at which Wine develops, it's best to use the
development release, unless you've got a regression.
